Thats true and the players who were out this weekend would still be midweek..and that's if our situation doesn't get worse as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kante 1,643 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Kepa Dave Silva Rudi James Jorgi RLC Saul Ziyech Puli Mount Bench Mendy, Sarr, Alonso Kova, Kante, Barkley, Vale. Alonso looks like he is struggling with an injury at the moment, so I would go with Saul at LWB. May be some arguments to start Sarr instead of Silva to save him for the PL. Not sure many of the others' can be rested unless Kai and AC are actually back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I'd like us to go strong but the injury/Covid list is piling on. Starting to feel like we are the only Top 6 club really affected here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,334 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Just like in 2 previous rounds try to get a draw and let Kepa do his thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milka 3,393 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Brentford have not played for 2 weeks , they not have any infected players and will probably play with solid team Chelsea is in terrible shape, 6-7 key players are missing, others are injured and others are out of shape never will have a more certain victory for Brentord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some ways, I think we may just have to go with a primarily U23 side with a few Sarr's, Saul's and Barkley's thrown in. No point breaking down a key starter with 7+ out with covid/injury.

Yep it's a shame as with City out we really should have been winning this (unless Liverpool roll out the A team) but I can't see how we can go with anything other than a scratch side tonight. Maybe put in Edou and hope he can repeat his heroics from the league game there (and obviously switch with Kepa if a shootout is looming).

If the stats are anything to go by he's nowhere near ready yet, they (his stats) look like Messi in U18's but (our version of) Torres' in the U23's. I haven't watched much of that level this season due to travelling so he may (like Kai at this level) still be playing well despite the lack of goals but 2 in 18 (spread over the UEFA youth league, PL2 and EFL trophy) doesn't look great at face value. He's got U18 level well and truly sussed though, 3 in 2 this season added to 18 in 18 last, but he had a hard time in PL2 last time out also (1 in 9).
